The appointment follows Gautam Adani's AMG Media Networks' acquisition of 49 per cent stake in the digital business news platform last month.

QBML owns and operates an exclusive business and financial news digital media platform, BQ Prime (formerly known as Bloomberg Quint).

Bloomberg and Quintillion will no longer co-produce content but will continue to distribute Bloomberg content in India through a license agreement.

Acquisition of Quintillion Media includes identified stakes in the digital media operations of Quintillion Business Media, Quintype Technologies and YKA Media.

In an interview with Sreekant Khandekar, Bahl spoke about The Quint’s strategy, subscription revenue versus ad revenue and the rise of video content.

BloombergQuint had plans to launch a TV channel for which it built a team, but the venture could not procure broadcasting license from the MIB.

He spoke about the company’s digital journey, at Digipub.
